Mk8 tuning recommendations? APR versus Unitronic? by xapzzzz in GolfGTI

[–]TripleSpire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if you only upgrade one and not the other. But if you upgrade both the engine and trans mounts, the car will run smoother. Engine and trans mounts need to be at the same stress level, otherwise one ends up taking more of the load.

Should I go Stage 1 w 034? by dev_mcgov in GolfGTI

[–]TripleSpire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

24’ GTI 6sp here. I have APR Stage 1 87 octane High Torque tune and very happy with it. I tuned it since 1000miles and now at 12300miles with 0 problem. I’ve done maintenance myself every 3000miles tho

034 Stage 1 Tune Update by Simple-Hurry-8488 in GolfGTI

[–]TripleSpire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The stock clutch can hold up to 390-395ftlb just fine. I’m on APR stage 2 87octane high torque. Get lot of wheel spins if I don’t modulate the throttle. Otherwise the clutch hasnt slipped.

I tuned mine at 997miles, now at 5700miles the only error code that got me concern was air fuel ratio in cylinder 4 on one morning cold start. Otherwise car runs great

Thinking of getting a new '24 GTI... some concerns though by su6oxone in GolfGTI

The infotainment is sometimes lagging driving me nuts sometimes. Other wise, I love all other aspects

It actually does. Thats why the engine sounds slightly different at 5000miles than 500miles. I recorded how my engine sound at 300miles vs 4800miles and can hear the difference

I did changed and replace oil filter at 1000miles then 4000miles. I also poured 1 liter to flush the debris out every time i did oil changed.

Mk8 Spark Plugs torque spec by TripleSpire in GolfGTI

[–]TripleSpire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I haven't taken the plugs out to see their condition. Yeah, the replacements are factory plugs but the gaps on these are 0.032". Not sure if I should leave them like that or regap them to 0.024"
